For the first time, Kris Zocco enters a Milwaukee courtroom, now charged with killing his girlfriend Kelly Dwyer back in 2013.

Zocco was already serving time for child porn and drug charges. He was transferred from a prison cell to a Milwaukee County courtroom.

Prosecutors say he killed Dwyer and then stuffed her in a golf bag before dumping her body in rural Jefferson County.

Dwyer's family was not in the courtroom for Zocco's initial appearance. He's facing numerous charges including First Degree Reckless Homicide, Strangulation, and Hiding a Corpse.

Today, the state argued that they have enough circumstantial evidence to move forward with the case.

According to court documents, Dwyer was last seen with Zocco before she was reported missing back in October of 2013.

Following her disappearance, police say Zocco gave inconsistent statements to investigators. When investigators brought in a K9 Unit, traces of human remains were found in Zocco's bed, trash chute, and the trunk of his car.
